Four Barrel Coffee ditches soy milk today, begins the almond milk era

In crucial coffee-drinking news, today is the dawn of a new era at the Mission’s Four Barrel Coffee. With this morning’s service, owner Jeremy Tooker has officially ditched soy as the cafe’s non-bovine-related option and replaced it with almond milk from Califia Farms.

Pretty much everything you need to know about the change is in the note above, posted on the Twitter Machine. It’s a move that’s been several weeks in the making. A few weeks ago, SF Weekly reported on further reasons Tooker made the change — namely that, aside from the taste and nutritional improvements that come with almonds, there are plenty of serious GMO issues with soy. And so today is the beginning of the end of soy milk.
